most beers are no good from a can or bottle, anyhow.
the only way i can drink a guinness or murphy's is on tap.
but there's no real reason to have a guiness or a murphy's when you live in the best place for breweries in the u.s. ... the bigger ones are mactarnahan's (portland brewing), henry's widmer bros, bridgeport, full sail, etc etc.
but if you're gonna drink a beer in a bottle or a can, can't go wrong with the cheap stuff. and that dr pepper concoction sounds alright.
